You're talking about "format" here, not codec, right ?
I'm not a media expert, but I've seen at least ffmpeg threating
formats differently from codecs. For formats, AS doesn't let
you specify anything because it only supports FLV.
Or am I missing something ?
We had a discussion about how to support different formats
in the past, but that discussion didn't result in any implementation.
The summary should be here: http://wiki.gnashdev.org/MediaCapabilities.

Shouldnt' av_find_input_format() find out autonomously the actual
format by looking at magic numebrs or similar ? Have you asked
the ffmpeg developers about it ? Maybe we're just not providing
enough "probe" bytes ?
